Social clubs once formed the backbone of local life, and they still matter today. They’re more than places for a pint. They’re where people come together to organise, unwind, and feel part of something.
In her latest piece, Labour & Co-operative MP Kirsty McNeill makes the case for backing these member-led institutions that help communities thrive. 🔗 Read the full article in The House: politicshome.com/opinion/articl…
Trust is built when people work together to shape the places they live. Real change happens when communities have power over their streets, their spaces, their future. That’s why we work for a different way. Trust grows when power is shared.

I was interviewed on Drivetime about Labour’s inheritance and priorities.
Our Biscuit and Blether events are a chance to get advice and ask questions but for me the real magic is people meeting neighbours and turning strangers into friends.
On this #Srebrenica30 anniversary we remember where hate leads. @SrebrenicaUK ensure we can never forget and never repeat the horrors.
We've existed for over 100 years but somehow we still get confused with the shop.
Share a piece of lore about yourself
🙋♀️ It says a lot about the time that people assumed weans would either know what a cavalcade was or would find out. And despite all the innovation in tech and animation since it turns out a cheery man and a chatty lamp was plenty magical enough for me. ❤️
Much-loved childrens TV presenter Glen Michael has died at the age of 99. Who remembers watching him every Sunday on STV? With his wee dug and his talking lamp Paladin. His ‘Cartoon Cavalcade’ was a godsend for kids when we had a tiny amount of TV channels.
This is a huge milestone for science, innovation and Midlothian.
Thanks to the fabulous fellas of the Dalkeith Men’s Shed for showing me around and for your efforts to share your time and talents with each other.
